| -From Amazon- The Next Wave of Stories in the Harbingers Series Arrives Cycle 2 of the Harbingers series continues the story of four gifted strangers brought together to fight a growing darkness. In Bill Myers's "The Revealing," the team finds themselves in Rome trying to retrieve the mystical spear Hitler once owned--the very spear that pierced Christ's side. This task will take them from hidden chambers inside the Vatican to a mysterious seaside cave with powers they could never expect. Frank Peretti's "Infestation" unleashes a microscopic evil on the world that deceives, blinds, kills, then spreads. The Harbingers team must confront a monster bent on seducing and destroying mankind. In "Infiltration" by Angela Hunt, the team is wounded and barely holding together. Forced to split up, they realize their investigations have led them into dangerous waters. Alton Gansky's "The Fog" unleashes a supernatural mist unlike any other. There are vicious things in the fog that kill whatever they find. One team member realizes that the ultimate sacrifice may have to be made ISBN-13: 978-0764219757 The world is going crazy and only they can see it... Super creepy! Supernatural! Yep, just another chilling jaunt with the Harbingers! Each of the paperback books contains what they call a 'cycle', meaning four novellas – one from each author. I picked up the first one because I've been a fan of both Frank Peretti and Bill Myers since I was a kid and devoured half a dozen books a week. I was hooked by book one so when I got the chance to read the second cycle called The Assault, episodes 5-8, I grabbed it. |  This Book received a 4 Bark rating.

Definitely a darker series, book two is even spookier and delves further into the horror aspect of the intertwined storyline. One of the things that I liked about these stories is actually what the authors established as Rule #2 for their collaboration, each author writes a novella that builds on the previous one, all characters are present but each story is told from a single perspective. As each epsiode builds on the previous one it has been quite interesting to follow the four adult characters as they begin to understand, and even find a grudging respect, for each other. They are starting to form a true team as they must work together and utilize each person's strengths and gifts.
If you are a fan of any or all of the four authors, Bill Myers, Frank Peretti, Angela Hunt, Alton Gansky, or you enjoy Christian horror/supernatural suspense stories, you've definitely got to try The Assault and its predecessor!
